I think lemmy.world is letting kbin interact with them again. It was on ‘read only’ about a week ago, where kbin could see stuff being posted from lemmy, but anything being posted or down/upvoted from kbin wasn’t going anywhere. But I noticed today that some kbin users were able to successfully post to lemmy again. Though, I don’t know if that means the problem is fixed or not.
kbin (at least kbin.social) has a nice little community, but we’re holding on by a thread over there since we’ve been overrun with spammers and nothing is really being done to combat it. A good chunk of people have jumped ship because of it, but we’re still trying to fight where we can.
I made an mbin alt, but I haven’t really hung out enough here to get a proper feel of it. Honestly it feels like looking through a window to the rest of the fediverse. If there’s any chill mbin (edit) instances magazines, I’d love to know!
Beehaw seems to have the most positive vibes, and I really like that. It seems small, but they’re pretty active. I mainly enjoy their gaming community.
I think I interact the most with Lemmy, but that’s probably because that’s where most active instances are. You’ll get a lot more different takes on there than anywhere else, some great, some not so great, but that comes with any site where you bring a bunch of people together.
Of course, these are from my experience and opinion. I’m interested to see others’ takes.
Nothing. Until he returns the 200 dollars he stole, I am holding onto that grudge.
Man, Postal 2 is such a great time. I always start out with the best intentions of being “good”, but by the Wednesday level I’m robbing the bank and breaking into every house that I can.
I torrent old out of print books that I can’t find anywhere else. The scans are usually pretty good. There was also a podcast I used to listen to called Caustic Soda. When they ended it, they released all of their episodes through torrenting so the fans could have them.
Funny enough, that’s actually how I’m working on getting back into reading too. I really liked Trigun and Trigun Stampede, so right now I’m slowly working my way through the manga. And then after that I have a couple other manga series that I want to check out.
I don’t watch movies that much anymore. They just don’t seem that interesting nowadays, and I can’t bring myself put that time sink in of just sitting. TV shows are kind of the same way. I don’t really just sit and watch them unless I’m eating or with my friends. Books have also gotten away from me, but I’m trying to get back into reading. It’s just a little overwhelming when I look at my unread pile lol.
Expanding a little on your point, I feel like a lot of people miss one of the themes of the book being “does forcing someone to be a good person by stripping them of their free will actually make them a good person?” I don’t think Alex ever really regretted what he did, it’s just for a short time he couldn’t do it anymore. Even after they reverse his treatment, he goes and forms another gang. iirc The only reason he even thinks about stopping is because the violence isn’t “fun” anymore. So yeah, not really a good guy.
Yeah, I haven’t been a fan of it so far. Some of the visuals and shots are nice, but there hasn’t been one character so far that I’ve liked, and it tends to drone on in a boring way.
